Beim Scheiden der Sonne erschimmert
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Beim Scheiden der Sonne erschimmert
Der Metilstein freundlich und klar;
Dort ragen der Mönch und die Nonne
Versteinert als Felsenpaar.

"Heil, Heil den Neuvermählten!"
Sprach Mönch und Nonne zu mir:
"Wir hoffen, die beiden besuchen
Recht bald unser tannig Revier.

"Da breitet sich ihnen zu Füßen
Ihr Erbland in wonnigem Schein -
Und wenn sie auch wacker sich küssen,
Sie werden d'rum nicht gleich zu Stein."

Dans le coucher du soleil brille
Language: French (Français)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Dans le coucher du soleil brille
Le château de Mitelstein aimable et clair ;
Là le moine et la nonne se dressent
Pétrifié comme un couple de pierres.

« Salut, salut à ceux qui sont fraîchement unis ! »
Me dirent le moine et la nonne :
« Nous espérons que les deux visiteront
Très bientôt notre domaine de pins.

« Là à leurs pieds s'étendront
Les terres ancestrales dans une lumière heureuse --
Et s'ils s'embrassaient courageusement,
Ils ne seront pas immédiatement transformés en pierre. »
